Elegant Bourgeois Residence in the Heart of Carcassonne

Elegant 1850s Bourgeois ResidencePrestigious City-Centre AddressPrivate Walled Garden OasisCommercial Potential
Steeped in 1850's glamour and timeless elegance, this splendid Bourgeois maison offers a rare opportunity to acquire a magnificent family residence, boutique guesthouse, or hospitality venture (subject to the necessary permissions), in the very centre of Carcassonne, the Canal du Midi and La Cité Medieval.

The ground floor, ready for refreshing and personalisation, comprises an impressive entrance hall, study, spacious laundry room, large double garage, and studio. With direct access to the garden, these spaces could be transformed into a breathtaking living and entertaining area reminiscent of the grandeur of a bygone era. Beneath the house, a traditional wine cellar awaits, perfect for selecting a favourite bottle of wine or champagne to enjoy in the garden.

The first floor features a kitchen, an elegant sitting room, a formal dining room, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms. On the upper floor, a self-contained studio with a kitchenette, open-plan bedroom, and bathroom is complemented by a further four bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing generous accommodation for family and guests.

A charming walled garden, adorned with graceful palm trees and mature planting, provides a peaceful oasis in the city. Large enough to accommodate a cocktail-style swimming pool or Jacuzzi, the garden is equally enchanting as it stands today—an idyllic setting for al fresco dining and entertaining.

Thanks to its versatile layout and exceptional location, the property offers exciting potential as a bed and breakfast, boutique guesthouse, or restaurant (all subject to the necessary permissions), appealing to both tourists and professionals visiting the city.

Enjoy the very best of Carcassonne on foot. Stroll to shops, restaurants, cafés, bars, the cinema, and local churches. Arrive home directly from the train station without needing a car. Throughout the year, immerse yourself in the city's vibrant cultural life—from summer festivals, the Fête de la Musique, Spanish celebrations, and the spectacular Bastille Day fireworks. The world-famous medieval citadel of Carcassonne is on your doorstep, offering an unparalleled lifestyle in one of France's most captivating historic cities.

A truly exceptional property combining character, space, charm, and outstanding potential in an enviable central location.

Discuss an Offer

Discuss an Offer

If this or other properties are of potential serious interest, you may wish to speak in confidence and without obligation or commitment with a sympathetic senior negotiator to discuss what flexibility there may be in the price.

Getting the right deal can be a question of good timing and we have that information.

Whatever you read in the press, it is simply not true that one can apply a percentage discount to the price of any property we like the look of. And it is a real shame to fall in love with a property that is beyond what you wish to spend or can afford.

To arrange a callback, please email in-confidence@beauxvillages.com
